Australia has remained undefeated in the 2015 Rugby World Cup, or RWC, “Pool of Death” after beating rugby minnow Uruguay 65-3 at Villa Park on Sunday. The Wallabies massacred Uruguay with 11 tries led by flankers Sean McMahon and Ben McCalman, who both crossed twice in front of more than 36,000 rugby fans.

Australia did not waste time to cruise past Uruguay, scoring their first try in the sevent-minute mark courtesy of McMahon. Everything went well for the Wallabies except for Aussie stand-off Quade Cooper, who spared Uruguay a bigger beating after failing to convert six of his 11 kicks at goal. Uruguay’s lone three-point score came in the 24th-minute mark via Felipe Berchesi’s penalty kick.

However, despite Australia’s easy victory over Uruguay, coach Michael Cheika, who deployed a completely different starting XV in his side’s first two games, was not thrilled with all of the action, insisting that their hands will be full when the Wallabies face England at Twickenham Stadium on Saturday.

"No one's won the World Cup unless they've won every game. I've never been here before, but I figured that's what you've sort of got to do," Cheika said, SBS reports. "We're looking at our game to see how we can improve.”

The Wallabies is now tied with Wales in Pool A of the 2015 RWC, with both nations on nine points, two wins and one four-try bonus point. Australia’s victory is the biggest lopsided World Cup result so far, eclipsing the RWC fixture between New Zealand and Namibia, which the All Blacks won, 58-14.

Scotland vs. USA

Scotland won their second game in Pool B of the 2015 Rugby World Cup after overcoming a surprisingly tough USA in Leeds on Sunday. Scotland scored all their five tries in the second period to defeat the Americans 39-16 at Elland Road.

Scotland coach Vern Cotter is convinced his side’s struggle against USA will help them prepare ahead of a tougher assignment in the Springboks. "Japan were physical as well but these guys were bigger, very hard-hitting and came off the line with speed," Cotter told the Rugby World’s official website. “South Africa are physical, probably even more so, Samoa the same, and we knew this was going to be the kind of rugby we would face in this pool."

Tim Visser scored Scotland’s first try in the opening minutes of the second half, after trailing 13-6 in the first half of the game. The victory gave Scotland their second successive bonus point win to move on to 10 points in their group stage, three clear of South Africa, whom they will play in Newcastle on Saturday, while USA sits at the bottom of the standings, four points behind Japan and Samoa.

Ireland vs. Romania

Ireland followed up their clinical victory over Canada with another solid win in Pool D of the 2015 RWC against group minnow Romania. Ireland brushed off Romania 44-10 on Sunday, giving them a point ahead of France.

Wingers Keith Earls ran in two tries to level with the great Brian O’Driscoll on seven World Cup tries, while Tommy Bowe also contributed two tries as Ireland continued their progress in this year’s World Cup. The only setback in Ireland’s performance was a muscle injury suffered by Rob Kearney after his late try.

Ireland coach Joe Schmidt, who made 12 changes from his side that overpowered Canada to a half-century, admitted it was not a perfect game, acknowledging Romania’s toughness on the pitch. Ireland will face tougher tests ahead in their RWC fixture, with a match against Italy up in a week’s time, and a likely decider against France on Oct. 11.
